SMALL TOWN MILLIONAIRE
Robb Strandlund & Fred Koller
NO DEMO
I WAS BORN IN A SMALL TOWN,
WE REALLY WERE QUITE POOR.
GRADUATED FROM A SMALL TOWN HIGH SCHOOL,
IN 1964.
A LEVI JACKET AND AN OLD GUITAR,
WERE THE ONLY THINGS I PACKED.
RODE MY THUMB OUT TO L.A.
BIG BLACK LIMO BROUGHT ME BACK.
SMALL TOWN MILLIONAIRE,
EVERYONE I SEE,
KNOWS MY NAME AND SAYS HELLO,
'CAUSE THEY ALL WANT TO BE.
A SMALL TOWN MILLIONAIRE, LIKE ME.
I USED TO PLAY DOWN AT THE GRANGE HALL.
WITH A BUNCH OF LOCAL GUYS.
I GET MISTY EVERY TIME I HEAR,
LOUIE, LOUIE.
GOT MY RECORDS IN A WIRE RACK,
DOWN AT THE TEN CENT STORE.
IT'S AMAZING WHAT A GUY CAN DO,
WITH A LITTLE LUCK,
AND JUST THREE CHORDS.
SMALL TOWN MILLIONAIRE,

WELL I LOVE MY LITTLE SMALL TOWN,
AND MY LITTLE SMALL TOWN LOVES ME.
'CAUSE EVERYBODY'S GETTIN' FAMOUS,
I PUT THEM ALL ON MTV.
